A conversation I didn't appreciate

Bumping into an ex-colleague, the following conversation ensued.

Me: "And how about you? Are you still working for X?"
Ms Lah-di-dah: "No, I'm now working for this place and it's shit. They have me doing this really low level stuff. Like, stuff even you wouldn't do."

...

Really? I know what I do isn't rocket science or particularly earth shattering, but... really?!

Well, at least you know you're doing better then she is. Schadenfreude.

I thought so too, especially since my work is what about making things happen.

Isn't she? No wonder she is desperate for a man (her words, not mine).

I know. Wonder if she realises that's probably why she's doing low level stuff - to be put in her place and none of the juniors want to put up with her shit.
